The canyon walls were a run of colours, as if, in a fit of whimsy, Mother Nature had just kept going with the finger paint, like the kindergarten child whose teacher didn’t know when to take the paper away.

The Art of Reality
Some consider photography

Moments
Beauty
Reality
But I have always used
My camera to create them
The art of life
Provides a more difficult task
Lichen and Words
With the order
And beauty
Of an insight
Larger than I
And beauty
Of an insight
Larger than I
The words come
The way lichen
Came to the rock
They come to me
Both words and lichen
So their beauty can be known
Soft Light
The focus is a fair bit out
And the image over-sharpened
But I like the way
The soft light plays
Casting shadows from the leaves
And the image over-sharpened
But I like the way
The soft light plays
Casting shadows from the leaves
When the words don’t come
Sometimes, no words come
Greyness descends like a shroud
A cloak
A blind
Greyness descends like a shroud
A cloak
A blind
No, the words are there
They are always there
But I cannot hear them
Cannot see them
And so the world seems grey
Sounds like white noise
The guileless hum
Of a refrigerator
Shadow-play
Shadows play
On grey
Concrete
On grey
Concrete
Tree leaves sway
On subtle
Breeze
Quiet reigns
On mindful
Day
The quality of light
There are colours in the sky
I had never seen
And patterns in the world
I could never know
I had never seen
And patterns in the world
I could never know
Until I looked through a lens
Clicked the shutter
And took the latent image home
To explore the possibilities
No mere recorder this
Light falls
On an electric canvas
Strokes from a brush
Made of glass
On an electric canvas
Strokes from a brush
Made of glass
Interpretations
Of a world made
From highlights
And shadows
Rendering texture
And line
Beach Therapy
How many hours have I spent
Without lament
On ocean shores
Listening to waves crash down
And then recede
Without lament
On ocean shores
Listening to waves crash down
And then recede
